Subtle Studying Songs

Jun 9, 2017

For Good Days and Bad

Sometimes when you’re studying, it can be a bit hard to concentrate with lots of background noise or even with none at all. Sometimes a song is the only solution. If you’re like me, and you tend to be more focused while listening to music, then I have the perfect life of songs for you that aren’t too distracting or too subtle.

“Lovesong” by Adele

“Running Away” by AM

“Golden Fleece” by Amy Shark

“Deleted” by Amy Shark

“Don’t Go” by Benton Paul

“Sandcastles” by Beyoncé

“Dancing On My Own” by Calum Scott

“The Scientist” by Coldplay

“Fix You” by Coldplay

Dean Lewis’ EP Same Kind of Different – All of his songs are just perfect, definitely worth discovering.

“The A Team” by Ed Sheeran – “This,” “Lego House,” “Autumn Leaves,” and “Sunburn” all from the album ‘+’ are also amazing.

“Hearts Don’t Break Around Here” by Ed Sheeran – “How Would You Feel” and “Save Myself” are others from his album Divide.

“Hurricane Drunk” by Florence + The Machine

“Fire Escape” by Foster the People

“I Don’t Wanna Love Somebody Else” by A Great Big World

“All the Bright Places” by Haley Jonay

“Ghost” by Halsey – “Colors” is another great one from her album BADLANDS.

“My Heart With You” by The Rescues

“Sad Beautiful Tragic” by Taylor Swift – This song is from her album Red and is a beautiful tune with no beat drops or surprises to keep you focused. Basically the whole album fits the same description, so I recommend adding them all to your playlist.
